We are all Called to lead
"The gifts Christ gave were that some would be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ... Speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into Christ, from whom the whole church, joined and knit together by every ligament with which it is equipped, as each part is working properly, promotes the church's growth in building itself up in love." — Ephesians 4:11-12, 15-16
Meet our new pastor, Reverend Brandon Proffitt!
Why, hello there!
My name is Rev. Brandon Proffitt. You can call me Pastor Brandon, Rev. Proffitt, Rev. Branmuffin, or, honestly, whatever feels most comfortable to you.
I earned my MDiv. from Phillips Theological Seminary in December ‘21. My spouse, Meg, and I made our way to the mountain-lands from the plains of Lincoln, NE, with our cat, Goose, a large yellow tabby cat who is as ornery as his namesake. (He is named after the flerken from Captain Marvel, not the cantankerous bird from the north) Hopefully, by the time you are reading this, we have added 4 more legs to our family in the shape of a rescued canine.
I began my ministry as a half-time pastor at a small country church and a part-time bartender at a local brewery. Because of that, Meg and I have enjoyed getting to celebrate local craft beer both where we live and when we travel. It has been an unexpected and rewarding aspect of my ministry. I am a born and raised fan of the Nebraska Cornhusker Football team, which I hear is a Colorado red flag. If that wasn’t enough, I am also a Kansas City Chiefs fan, which is a Denver red flag. Hopefully you won’t hold that too much against me. We are also soccer fans, especially the USWNT. But, I also excitedly learned of the local MLS team, Colorado Rapids, and look forward to following them. My interests are eclectic and likely full of surprises; from football to futbol, RuPaul’s Drag Race to Great British Baking Show, culinary tourism to social justice advocacy, Disney princesses to Marvel superheroes. Put mildly, I am reasonably well-rounded in my interests.
One of my greatest loves in the church is the table where we gather to share and be in communion. It is the one place where all of God’s beloveds are on equal footing. It is the place where we practice the faith we live out from our doorsteps to the ends of the earth. It is the place where we learn how to practice truly Christ-like love.
You can find me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or even TikTok, all @RevBranmuffin.
I look forward to seeing you and getting to know you, but until then, “Love and serve your God by loving and serving your neighbor.”

Remember, hate is always foolish, and love is always wise. Always try to be nice and never fail to be kind.
